Lifelong Learning in the Utrecht region

Thanks to funding from the National Growth Fund’s LLO Catalyst programme, we are able to offer tailored training to ten companies working on the energy and materials transition. This training is available for all employees – whether they have vocational, higher professional, or academic qualifications.

What you can expect from us

Initial consultations
We start by exploring your organisation’s training needs and discussing expectations. This takes place over several meetings with our account managers. If there’s a good match, we draw up an agreement and begin the collaboration.

In-depth needs assessment
Together, we delve deeper into the learning and development needs. Our project leaders consider trends in the labour market, technology, demographics, and scientific insights into energy, materials, and transitions. This results in a broad and thorough understanding of the short- and long-term development needs of your workforce across the organisation.

Design
Next, we co-design a tailored training or education plan that aligns with your organisation’s needs and the capabilities of your staff. In every project, knowledge of transitions is key. There is extensive scientific research in this area. We use the Futuring method, which helps initiate meaningful movement in major societal transitions through small, impactful steps.

Implementation
The learning activities are delivered. These can take place in various settings—including directly in the workplace—depending on the specific needs of your organisation.

Evaluation and scaling
We evaluate the impact of the learning activities together. All involved parties then come together to share insights and lessons learned. We also explore whether successful approaches can be scaled up for other companies or sectors, such as healthcare, education, or the creative technology sector. In doing so, we work together to strengthen the regional ecosystem for lifelong learning.

A learning approach

We follow a learning approach, continuously developing and refining our methods based on insights and experiences gained through our projects.
